These events are revealed as Martin and Anna Price search for the owner of a security box held by a Swiss bank. Whether they have a bearing on their investigation is unclear but it becomes apparent that they are not the only ones interested in the whereabouts of the former band member named Jase. A trail of duplicity and avarice commencing in the pop music world of the nineteen-seventies comes to light as the husband and wife team follow a number of leads which they hope will also reveal the whereabouts of one of the long missing Faberge Imperial Eggs.
